Colts Jeff Saturday Tweeted About Horrible Raiders Days Before Coaching Debut Vs. Las Vegas

To be fair, he broke the rule before he was an NFL coach. That’s not likely to make it any less awkward for the Colts when they travel to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders — a team Saturday said “looks horrible” just days before he became Indianapolis’ interim coach: The Raiders were less than inspiring in the game that prompted Saturday’s quip; they fell 24-0 to the Saints....

The 39-year-old quarterback had one final season left in him after a 16-year stint with the Chargers, leading Indianapolis to an 11-5 record and berth in the AFC playoffs. It’s certainly possible that the team retains backup Jacoby Brissett and gives him a shot at the starting role again after he led the team to a 7-9 record in 2019, but owner Jim Irsay isn’t opposed to adding another name to the mix, should that person show interest....

Comedian Robin Tran Suggests Steve Urkel Would Never Have Survived Cancel Culture

Celebrities including Tina Fey, Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon have come under fire recently for making racially insensitive jokes or working on problematic material in the past. Even Friends has been catching more ridicule lately, because of its pretty striking lack of diversity. And while there are more plenty of other older shows that would likely get canceled—figuratively, and maybe literally—in a heartbeat if they were to premiere in today’s socially conscious climate, according to comedian Robin Tran, there’s one old show that particularly sticks out: Family Matters....

The fact that Amy Biehl had been killed by some of the people she wanted to help struck a special note of horror, even in a country where political murder has become commonplace. Black South African leaders denounced the atrocity. “Wrong is wrong, whoever perpetrates it,” said Archbishop Desmond Tutu, the Nobel peace laureate. But among young black radicals. there seemed to be a chilling lack of remorse. Biehl’s attackers shouted the slogans of the militant Pan-Africanist Congress (PAC), which sees “one settler, one bullet” as the answer to the country’s problems....
